“Rush, your phony soldier comments pissed me off,’’ McGough continued in an email posted today by DailyKos.com, that liberal weblog, responding to the report of Limbaugh’s newest comment. Brandon Friedman, a VoteVets member, reported it in his "diary'' on the site. "The audacity of someone like you who never had the courage to stand and fight for what you believe in makes my head spin,'' McGough wrote, Friedman reports.
McGough wrote that his anger for Limbaugh’s comments is “what made me stand up and state my convictions in front of a camera. I wanted to point out that you are wrong. I am not a phony soldier.
“I believe that we are not doing the right thing for national security by staying in Iraq,’’ McGough continued. “We are putting too much strain on our military by extending tours and not giving people enough time at home to rest. We have taken our eye off of the real Al-Qaeda and let them regroup to their pre-9/11 strength.’’
